Damn, I don't know why but when I saw that I started laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes, the Old Lady came over to see what I was laughing about, slapped thwe back of my head, called me a goof and walked off chuckling.

/If my dog ate 500, I am afraid I would just have to write it off, my dignity ah who am I kidding I'm both too lazy and to squeamish to follow the mutt around to get it back

"Have to" follow him around and pick pieces of bills out of his poop? I certainly wouldn't do that for $500.

/ Though this does give me a great idea for a reality game show where rich people feed money to dogs, and contestants try to recover the bills from their poo.// Still better than half the reality shows out there

When my labrador was young he would sometimes root around in the garbage. I vividly remember on a walk one day he assumed the "position", strained for a bit, then moved on for a few feet, assumed the position again....nothing. After several attempts on his part, I started to pay attention. I bent over and looked closely. To my surprise there was something white just poking out of his nether region. It looked like the top of a Clorox wipe sticking out.

I quickly looked around, assessed the situation (no one around) and gave the wipe a tug. It came out in one pull. An undamaged paper towel had made it's way through his digestive track in one piece (Bounty really are stronger and more absorbent apparently). I bought a new trash can with a lid the next day. Apparently, he had found and eaten one of the bacon fat soaked paper towels I had thrown in the trash after microwaving bacon.

Let's Make a Doodie!

"Okay, now will you choose what's inside Dog Number One, Dog Number Two, or Dog Number Three?"

You can win a year's supply of Bounty paper towels with that story. Did you save the proof?

It would have made a great product testimonial or commercial, if it wasn't so farking disgusting. No I didn't hang on the refrigerator or anything. Didn't want to exacerbate the poor little guy's shame.

I have long hair and every once in a while the pup will eat a hair and poop a necklace- several turds strung on a hair. Then he walks around in circles with a turd necklace hanging out and a surprised look on his face. I have to go pull it out, which is awkward for both of us.

Nope ... I would've just shot the dog ... which, I suppose, is why I don't have a dog anymore. Ol' Fido didn't realize I was serious when I made the threat.

Our lab stole and ate a stack of $5 bills. He was old and senile, and he went through a stage of eating random things. We had to follow him around and reclaim as many $5's as we could, bag them in Ziplocks, and take them to the credit union.

This is funny, but I have a hard time feeling sorry for this guy. He knew the dog had a habit of eating anything, but still left $500 where the dog could get at it. The smart thing to do would be to put it in the glove box or put it in his wallet and take it with him.

For the bills that are mostly intact with both complete serial numbers, I would have just deposited those using the bank's ATM.That worked just fine for a bill I found after a winter thaw that was in a similar shape to some of the pictured bills.Think about it... if the bank is going to reject it, they have to hold onto the bills and/or mail them back to you. It should be a lot easier just to stick them in the "worn-out bills" pile that are slated to be returned for destruction. I'm pretty sure that all banks do this, even if not all the tellers know about it.

We had absolutely no trouble redeeming our (shiatty) bills. We just put them in Ziplocks so the tellers didn't have to handle them. Laughter and similar tales of canine misbehavior were shared, and we got somewhat cleaner money.
